  Q: How should one safely service front brake pads while handling asbestos fiber dust on Ford Excursion?

  A:

  Maintenance workers need to exercise caution when operating on front brake pads since asbestos fiber dust is dangerous to health if breathed into the lungs. A specific vacuum cleaner for asbestos needs use while its sealed labeled bag requires notification to the trash hauler. A proper vacuum must be used to clean the area but toxic dust purifying respirators from the government should be worn when any dust generation can still occur. Danger zones that generate asbestos dust should remain off limits to everyone except brake and clutch repair specialists so warning signs can stay posted. First inspect and drain brake fluid from the master cylinder reservoir until it reaches half full capacity. Rise the vehicle while supporting it and peel off the tire wheel assembly from its position. Brake pad examination should determine their condition for wear and contamination state while replacement should occur when pads reach the specified metal backing plate or rivet thickness or exceed it. Brake pads must always be replaced in their entire axle set formation. Support the disc Brake Caliper by itself before removing its two pin bolts from the caliper anchor plate. Measurement of rotor thickness requires replacement when the minimum requirement is not achieved. The caliper needs evaluation for leakage because the detection of leaks requires disassembly. Remove the V-springs first and then proceed to remove both pads and rail clips if needed. Installation should be conducted without touching the pad lining material with grease or any oil or brake fluid or contaminant substances and should never use damaged pads. Settle stainless steel rail clips and pads first and proceed with adding V-springs if required. Instal the caliper when pistons are compressed while avoiding any damage to the bleeder screw and rotor shield before securing the caliper through its pin bolts. Put back the tire with wheel assembly before lowering the vehicle and adding clean High Performance DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid C6AZ-19542-AB which satisfies Ford specification ESA-M6C25-A. Finish by installing the brake reservoir cap. Confirm that all brakes operate correctly as the final step of the repair process.

  Q: How to service and repair the rear brake pads on all on Ford Excursion?

  A:

  As part of servicing and repairing rear brake pads on all vehicles begin by checking the brake master cylinder filler cap then the brake fluid level in the reservoir before removing fluid to reach half capacity. The following procedure should be used to inspect brake pads for wear or contamination before new pads are installed after removing wheel and tire assembly. The service of forward-of-axle Brake Calipers starts with removing nuts and stone shields followed by caliper pin bolt removal. The rear disc brake caliper should never remain suspended by the brake hose therefore establish adequate support during its dismantling process. The following step requires moving the brake pads and rail clips before measuring the rear Brake Disc thickness. The technician should install a new rear brake disc when the measurement result does not match specifications. The disc brake caliper deserves an inspection for any fluid leaks which will require disassembly of the components. The completion of installation involves following removal steps backward while taking care to shield the Piston and boots before forcing the caliper piston into position by making sure the pistons reach their designated spot at the bottom of the bores.
